Hi everyone, I looked into this issue today and the problem afaics is, that the ifupdown parser requires for an interface to be unmanaged, also that there is a valid connection defined in /e/n/i for that interface. If it e.g. finds only wpa-roam, this is treated as an incomplete/invalid connection, so the interfaces is not added to the list of well_known_interfaces.
The attached patch always adds the interface to well_known_interfaces, as soon as it finds an iface <foo> ... line in /e/n/i. Please test and report back. Thanks, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
